Jesus ended the book of Revelation by saying, "Yes! I am coming soon."

And here we are, 2,000 years later, still waiting.

Clearly, "soon" means something different to God than it does to us. He doesn't perceive time the same way we do.

Jesus wasn't really referring to a length of time. He was speaking of the certainty that the prophecy in Revelation would be fulfilled right at the appointed time.

It will surely come to pass, and when it does, it will happen suddenly. We will be about our daily lives when all of a sudden, true believers will be raptured, and the rest of the world will be ushered into the Great Tribulation.

Even though Jesus wasn't really speaking about the timing when He said He would be back soon, He didn't leave us in the dark about the timing either.

The book of Daniel reveals that it will happen when knowledge greatly increases, along with the speed at which we travel.

In Matthew 24, Jesus reveals that it will be like it was in the days of Noah and Lot, a culture rampant with the love of self and sexual sin.

The previous two cycles of human history lasted 2,000 years each. From Adam to Moses was 2,000 years. From Moses to Jesus was 2,000 years. And here we are, roughly 2,000 years after the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

It won't be long until the book of Revelation is fulfilled, starting with the rapture of believers who have remained faithful.

Would you be considered faithful if He came today? Or are you still flirting with the things of this world? It's time to decide who your master is.

If you are seeing this after the rapture, know that it is not over. This is your final chance to humble yourself before Christ, admit that you need salvation, and receive it as the free gift that has always been available.

For all who call on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ shall be saved.
